I put in an offer of £100 yesterday afternoon,now I know that they have 48hrs to respond but in this time 2 others have put in bids he has sent a counter offer to 1 who has then retracted their bid,another has then retracted,then someone else has put bid in and the seller has sent them a counter offer,then one of the people who has retracted their bidhas put another bid in.

Both bidders retracted saying entered wrong amount,I am pissed off as am a genuine bidder yet the seller is offering counter offers to others who bid after me and accepting bids from peole who have already retracted once.

I don't mind if I don't get the item,I will find one elsewhere but I am a little peeved that he has not contacted me,although I relise he wants the best price for item.I have mailed saying can you please let me know as if it's a no then I want to look elsewhere as soon as.

Am I being unreasonable,if I am then fair do's,just a bit pissed off.

I don't think you are being unreasonable. If I were you I would cancel your offer and spend your cash elsewhere. It seems this seller is playing games.

Well they replied to my mildly shirty mail and said sooooo sorry but people had been messing her about and then said would I like it for an increased counter offer,so I replied saying no thanks I have found one fairly similar on amazon that for a wee bit more will have free delivery and will be covered insurance wise if it got lost,seller was charging £8 delivery + pay more if wanted it specialed,and it will come with a warranty.

Am grateful now that mine was not accepted and this has made me wary of putting offers in.Some people give fleabay a bad name :(
